RE: Parking Lease and Maintenance Agreement with Penobscot County
DATE: June 91 1993
As you will recall, we have previously developed the terms of
an agreement with Penobscot County regarding the construction,
maintenance and use of parking spaces in the new parking lot behind
the Police Station. The Council agenda includes the specific
agreements between the City and County.
The terms of the agreement are summarised below.
1. The County will lease a total of 35 spaces on City -owned
land for a period of 20 years. The County will pay $875
per apace as a reimbursement for construction costs.
These funds are part of the local match for the Police
Station Jobe Send project. The County has previously
made a $10,000 payment on the full amount of $30,625.
2. The County shall make annual payments equal to $4.00 per
space per month for the maintenance of these spaces.
This fee will increase to $5.00 per month in the year
2001. The City shall provide all maintenance services
Including snow plowing for these spaces.
3. A total of 6 parking spaces were constructed on adjacent
County -owned land. The County will reimburse the City's
cost of constructing these spaces ($429.00) per apace.
4. The County will reimburse the City for the maintenance of
spaces including anew removal. This fee will be $4.00
per space per month. This amount will increase to $5.00
per month in the year 2001.
We believe that the agreements as outlined above represent a
positive and cooperative effort between the City and County to
address parking needs in the Summand and Court Street area. Staff
recommends approval.
